Similar to my J4000 I had. Rear axle was J20 and just bolted in. At the same time I flipped the rear shackle down with a pry bar before bolting up the shocks. It really needed angle shims (which I bought much later but never got to put in because I rolled the truck swerving to avoid a horse on a downhill switchback on gravel.)
